Procurement Services Section

Mission

The Procurement Services Section (PSS) provides acquisition support to the Department's Offices, Boards, and Divisions (OBDs). The OBDs include the Department's litigating components (Antitrust Division, Civil Division, Civil Rights Division, Criminal Division, Environment and Natural Resources Division, Tax Division, U.S. Attorneys and the U.S. Trustee Program) as well as other DOJ components such as the JMD Staffs.

Doing Business with the Offices, Boards, and Divisions

Information on business opportunities within the OBDs, including opportunities for small and disadvantaged businesses, can be found on the Department's Office of Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization website.

PSS delegates procurement authority to individuals in the OBDs, including U.S. Attorneys Offices and U.S. Trustees Offices nationwide. Some of the larger organizations have a full-time procurement staff while the smaller offices typically have one individual with a very limited delegation of authority. The following documents contain information on the OBD procurement offices and individuals within the OBDs that have delegated procurement authority:
